That's why I want to give everyone a heads-up about this year's Mobbies, our annual competition to find Maryland's most outstanding blogs. Nominations for the 2011 Mobbies will wrap up Wednesday at 5 p.m. There are three sports-specific categories: best Orioles blog, best Ravens blog and best general sports blog.

You can find all the information on nominations, final voting, prizes and the awesome awards party here.

If there’s a local sports blog -- or a strong non-sports one -- you like, make sure you nominate it. And if you’re a blogger yourself, start begging your friends to nominate your website and vote like crazy starting next week.

Feel free to tell me about the other blogs you frequent in the comments section. Maybe I’ll check them out.
